At a recent event at Inside 3D Printing in NYC, I shared ways GrabCAD helps you take a product concept from its beginning stages to a manufactured design. Learn how you can overcome tough manufacturing and collaboration hurdles. I elaborate on my 5 tips and how our company supports you, below.

This was one of the most difficult GrabCAD Challenges yet. Engineers balanced both design and technical requirements while using SimScale software to optimize their truck underrun solutions. Our winners created lighter and more attractive designs - check them out.

The F-F-Fiddle is an FFF 3D printable electric violin. The BOM cost is roughly $250 as designed and is licensed as Creative Commons Share Alike Attribution. Modify, distribute, and sell the design, but keep your source files open and credit OpenFab PDX, LLC. We give you a sneak peak into the project and its creator, GrabCADr David Perry.

Robosavvy found so many fresh ideas for their new humanoid robot design from GrabCADrs. This design is supposed to look great, be agile, and give for entertainment and educational value to users, a worthy Challenge that our Community was eager to solve. They are now set to launch this new open-source humanoid robot with hopes of making it at a reasonable cost.

FilaMaker, led by Marek also known as GrabCADr Marcus, helps 3D printer users recycle and reuse their 3D prototyping materials. Learn more about his projects and you’ll see how the open source hardware movement and leaders like Marek are changing the way engineers work.

There are many students on GrabCAD who are looking to learn and take part in fun projects to advance their skills and connections with other engineers. Teachers can take advantage of our platform to engage their students and make their CAD lessons more effective and hands-on.

3D printing is moving in some intriguing directions, like medicine, which could lead to 3D printed organs and prosthetics. We found a group you is spreading the word of the applications of 3D printing through an unlikely and awesome device, hacking action figures.
